That's awesome!! Great mod! *thumbs up*



And your mod is good at recreating the ENCOM-511 computer (seen briefly at the beginning of the trailer for Tron). I love this trailer: http://www.retrojunk.com/details_trailer/59/where to buy abortion pill ordering abortion pills to be shipped to house buy abortion pill online

I wonder how he got the rom and all that for emulating the 2600 and what the specs are roughly for being able to play the Atari 2600 games on that.Things that make you go hmmm.

End of line

Compucore

VROOOOOOOOOMMMM!!!

To compute or not to compute that is the question at hand. Tis nobler to compile in C++ or in TASM.

Nice Mod!
(Thanks For The Instructions! : ) )
If you Want To Make Glowey Carts JediKnight Sent Me Instructions!

(JediKnight I Hope Its Ok If i Post this)

The glowing TRON carts are not that hard to do, but do require a bit of work.

The parts include getting some specific resistors and LEDs (do a google search for a LED resistance calulator based on the specific number and type of LEDs). You can probably buy them from www.lsdiodes.com.

The next thing you need is some glossy paper and access to a laser printer to print out some labels for your carts. You also need some spray adhesive to make the paper stick to the carts.

Next, you need the basic carts. I bought mine from http://www.vgwiz.com/OnlineStore/index.php.

The carts are designed for basic atari circuit boards and the Mattel ones do nto match (they are smaller). I built a "carrier" using spare circuit board (radio shack, etc.) and cut it to the right size - spacing is critical. See my pics here: and
Next find the 5v power line on the cart and a ground line. Solder you LED(s), resistors, and wire to complete a circuit between GND and 5v, and your done!

As it turns out, I recently did an interview with jediknight0 and caught him at just the right time: just when he was finishing this mod.

I've posted it here:

Big thanks to jediknight0 for taking the time to answer my questions! (And sorry I didn't post the interview sooner, I know it's been a while since you sent the responses back. Hope you like the way it turned out!)

*UnBeLiEvAbLe* Russ! That system is truly a thing of beauty.

So how much will one of these cost me ?

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

Sorry about the lack of response - I was in Disneyworld this past week with the wife and purposely did not take a computer with me... :-)
